SOUTHEASTERN COMMUNITY COLLEGE
OCTOBER 29, 1976
Earl Scruggs Revue At SCC
By Ramona Hendon
On October 2, Southeastern
Community College was honored
with an outstanding per
formance by the world famous
Earl Scurggs Revue. The band
consisted of six talented artists
who performed a myriad of
numbers, ranging from Mr.
Scruggs’ renowned banjo pickin’
to rock, pop, and country songs.
The group was made up of Earl
Scruggs; his three sons, Gary,
Randy, and Steve; Jimmy
Murphy, the Steel guitarist; and
the drummer, Jody Maphis.
During the 7:00 show the
audience, consisting primarily of
middle-aged people, did not
appear to enjoy the performance
to the fullest extent. They ap
parently expected a more
traditional Earl Scruggs and
many were disappointed in the
new image presented by the
entire Revue. However, the
10:00 crowd, made up mainly of
young people, was much more
enthusiastic in its response,
bringing the Revue back for a
double encore with its
tremendous applause.
Another asset to the concert
was the warm-up group, Kitty
Hawk, a local band headed by
Mike Hooks of the Whiteville
Current Enrollment
Music Center. The band drew
quite a warm reaction from the
audience and would be welcome
on the SCC campus at any time
in the future.

Model UN
To Be Held
The Model United Nations will
begin in Philadelphia, Penn
sylvania, on November 4 and
last through the seventh. It will
be held on the campus of the
University of Pennsylvania.
Attending from S.C.C. will be
Bridget Ramsey, Kathy Mercer,
Michelle Conert, Kim Lanier,
Terrence Carr, Walter Clark,
Carolyn Davis, and Mr. Alan
Brov;nlee, advisor.
The Model U.N. is exactly
what it says: a model of the
United Nations. It brings
together college students form
all over the United States to
particiate. It teaches the
students about world politics and
gives them the qualities of self
confidence and leadership.
The Southeastern delegation
represents Belgium in the Model
U.N. this year. They will be
discussing the same problems
the world faces today. Some of
these topics will be internatinal
terrorism, the Rhodesian and
South African situation, nuclear
testing, represssion and tortue.
Last year in New York City,
S.C. was one of only five com
munity colleges in the nation to
participate in the Model U.N.
Yet they have done remarkable
well against the large schools
and have pushed several
legislations through almost
single handed.
Each delegate will be on at
least one committee, while some
are on two. The committee
reports a resolution to the floor
and then it is voted on.
The school’s representatives
to the Model U.N. are planning
to fly to Philadelphia. They are
raising money by having bake
sales and are accepting con
tributions.
courses off campus. This is good,
for we see that many are very
much interested in improving
ourselves and our prosperity.
